LCM for 7 and 17
What's the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 7 and 17?
(One hundred nineteen)
Finding LCM for 7 and 17 using GCF's of these numbers
The first method to find LCM for numbers 7 and 17 is to find Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of these numbers. Here's the formula:
LCM = (Number1 × Number2) ÷ GCF
GCF of numbers 7 and 17 is 1, so
LCM = (7 × 17) ÷ 1
LCM = 119 ÷ 1
LCM = 119
Finding LCM for 7 and 17 by Listing Multiples
The second method to find LCM for numbers 7 and 17 is to list out the common multiples for both nubmers and pick the first which matching:
Multiples of 7: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84, 91, 98, 105, 112, 119, 126, 133
Multiples of 17: 17, 34, 51, 68, 85, 102, 119, 136, 153
So the LCM for 7 and 17 is 119
Finding LCM for 7 and 17 by Prime Factorization
Another method to find LCM for numbers 7 and 17 is to list all Prime Factors for both numbers and multiply the highest exponent prime factors:
All Prime Factors of 7: 7 (exponent form: 71)
All Prime Factors of 17: 17 (exponent form: 171)
71 × 171 = 119
